BLUFFTON, S.C. (AP) — Republican presidential contender Mike Huckabee says he’d seal the Mexican border, hire more agents to patrol it and make illegal immigrants go home before they could apply to return to this country.

“It’s tough, but I also think it’s fair, giving people 120 days to go back and then start the process all over,” the former Arkansas governor said Friday. “People will say, ‘Well, how will they go back?’ Well, they got here. They’ll figure out the same way they got here to go back.”
